Una experiencia inolvidable ❤️

Fue una experiencia muy linda, me sentí bien recibido. Nunca me faltó nada. Las actividades a realizar fueron sencillas porque habia temporada baja, pero igualmente siempre hay algo por hacer y ofrecer. El entorno es muy lindo, hay varios caminos para adentrarse en la selva, para ir a las playas y cascadas. Lo recomiendo

El lugar es hermoso, super fácil acceder a playas y cascadas para distenderse. Hice un voluntariado de dos semanas y termine quedandome casi un mes, me lleve amistades que quedan en el corazon para siempre 🫂.

La comunidad es un lugar muy especial, la comunidad y su familia son personas muy amables, están pendientes de que uno se sienta cómodo y a gusto en el lugar, las comidas son abundantes y ricas, se puede conectar con la comunidad y apoyar diferentes proyectos, realmente recomiendo este voluntariado. No olvidar que queda en la zona más lluviosa del mundo, es importante llevar repelente, pantalones y sacos manga larga y de secado rápido

La comunidad más que un voluntariado fue como el que hogar que siempre había soñado. Desde que llegas te reciben con mucho cariño, el lugar es austero, tiene una tranquilidad impresionante aquí la vida no va tan rápido, aquí todo se disfruta más intensamente, mi experiencia fue perfecta aprendí mucho la comunidad comida del pacífico y la disfruté mucho también, pude conocer muchos lugares hermosos gracias a la comunidad. Para mí esta experiencia se queda en mi corazón por que sé que tengo un pedacito, de hogar, de familia, de corazón en la comunidad chucheros al cual voy volver.
